Child Outcomes
During the pandemic, many kids lost time and fell behind in developing key skills. But this year’s results from BRIGANCE® and TerraNova® national assessments show that the longer children were enrolled in KinderCare, the sooner they reached their social, emotional, and academic milestones.
In fact, results from BRIGANCE® show that on average our students made seven months of progress over the course of only six months, and infants and toddlers had the biggest gains of any age groups in our programs.
Interrupted learning during the pandemic has caused the average U.S. student to fall 4-5 months BEHIND in math and reading. Here at KinderCare, kindergartners average nearly two months AHEAD of national expectations.
Employee Engagement
